    Life Socks are specially designed, non-restrictive, high stretch socks that aid airflow and regulate moisture and temperature. Read more below from the LifeSocks website or if you love the science of fibre then check out www.paladinresearch.com

    Why LifeSocks™?
    Socks provide an important protective interface between the abrasive surfaces of the inside of the shoe and the skin. Socks are essential to protect the skin from the traumas of friction and shear stresses inside the shoe while walking or exercising and to protect the skin from fluctuations in temperatures that can cause chilling or thermal burns and blisters associated with friction.
    The safer the feet are inside protective well fitting socks and shoes, the less likely they are to be injured. Complications such as slow healing wounds and foot ulcers are less likely to develop.

    LifeSocks™ are designed to:
    • Reduce friction, shear and pressure
    • Provide effective temperature and moisture management
    • Offer resistance against compression
    • Assist in providing a bacteriostatic environment
    • Adapt to the individual shape of the foot
    • Offer safe, warm, non-constrictive hosiery
    • Provide an important protective interface between the shoe and the skin
